Accept Payments through Microsoft Dynamics GP Sales Transaction Entry

Currently, Microsoft Dynamics does not offer a way to process credit cards. Merchants who want to accept payments through Microsoft Dynamics GP sales transaction entry need to use a payment module that integrates with GP.

Implementing an integrated payment module may seem complicated, but it’s easier than it sounds if you do a little research first. Many credit card processors install the payment integration for you and walk you through how to use it. Once the payment module is integrated with your GP software, you can take payments directly in your accounting software.

An integrated payment system saves you and your accounting team time, reduces the chance for errors, and simplifies the process of accepting credit card payments.

Top 3 advantages of accepting payments directly in GP

No double data entry

Payment terminals, whether physical card readers or virtual terminals, present a problem. Terminals function in a separate space apart from your GP software. Merchants who use a payment terminal are forced to manually update their accounting software to reflect credit card payments. Not only is this process time-consuming, but it also leaves room for human errors.

Merchants with an integrated payment system bypass double data entry. An integrated GP payment module updates your accounting software as soon as you run a credit card transaction. Integrated systems help prevent accounting mistakes and create efficiency because you only have to enter card data once.

Lower processing fees

Processing fees are an unavoidable part of accepting credit card payments. However, it’s possible to minimize them with an integrated payment system.

When you accept payments through Microsoft Dynamics GP sales transaction entry, line-item details, like zip code and items purchased, gets sent with each transaction. Credit card transactions that include a lot of customer information are less likely to be fraudulent. And because fraud is less likely, your processing fees drop too.

Automation

Automation makes your business flow more smoothly and saves you time.

GP payment integrations automatically post credit card payments in your accounts receivable and general ledger. Invoices are marked as paid without you needing to lift a finger. This kind of automation protects you from making simple errors like mistyping a number or forgetting to mark an invoice as paid.

Customer service

Think about all the times you’ve had to put up with terrible customer service.

Now think about dealing with bad customer service when your credit card processing isn’t working the way it should

Yeah. Not so fun.

So when it comes to selecting a payment integration, choose one that prides themselves on their in-house customer support. That way, if you ever encounter problems with your processor, you can rest assured that issues will be resolved quickly.

Flat rate pricing

Credit card processors typically offer three types of pricing models: interchange plus, tiered, and flat rate. Pricing models differ in the way they determine fees.

Rates fluctuate with interchange plus and tiered pricing models, which makes it difficult for merchants to predict how much they’ll pay in processing fees each month.

Flat rate pricing is the most popular of the three models because merchants pay the same processing rate every month. Merchants who choose a flat rate model receive simple statements and pay a consistent rate.

PCI compliance

Any GP payment integration you’re considering should be PCI compliant.

Businesses that accept credit cards are required to meet PCI guidelines. Failure to meet these guidelines may result in heavy fines and can even cost merchants the right to accept credit cards.

Many PCI-compliant payment integrations also provide tokenization technology. Tokenization allows you to save customers’ credit card data without keeping sensitive information onsite.

Reputable: BBB

Our world is filled with scammers, from fake charity organizations and investment scams to deceptive credit card processing companies.

To avoid falling prey to processing schemes, look up companies on the Better Business Bureau (BBB). The BBB compiles information on businesses and rates them according to their time in business, complaint history, transparent business practices, licensing, and more.

When you find a processor that lets you accept payments through Microsoft Dynamics GP sales transaction entry, verify that they are a reputable business first before signing a contract.
